“I recently subscribed to Sakuraco, and it has been an incredible experience. As someone who has never been to Japan, these monthly boxes have transported me there through the delightful array of authentic Japanese snacks. Each package comes with a beautifully curated booklet that provides fascinating insights into the geography and traditions of the regions the snacks come from, enriching the overall experience.
The snacks themselves are a highlight—each one has been delicious, showcasing unique flavors and textures that I wouldn't have discovered otherwise. From sweet treats to savory bites, there's something for every palate. Sakuraco truly captures the essence of Japanese snacking culture, and I look forward to each month's surprise. This service is a wonderful way to explore Japan from home, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Japanese cuisine and culture!”
“Everything is packaged so beautifully and carefully. So a visually pleasing and informative presenting of the Okinawa islands and of each snack. I am in love with the little plate i got too, it' adorable! I loved every bit of this experience❤️”
“I’m so excited that my box came in and everything is packed really nicely and there is multiple of items I thought I’d only get 1 of I’m now really excited for next months box”
“First time purchasing and I'm already a fan. Absolutely love being able to learn more about Japanese culture while supporting local artisans! I heard of them from Rachel and Jun, and I thank them for bringing attention to such a great product :) Adoring my Moon festival plate right now, can't believe it's dishwasher safe too, best purchase ever! 💕”
“I love visiting Japan, so every month when I receive a new Sakuraco box filled with authentic, traditional Japanese tea, sweets, cakes and a special gift, I feel like I’m back in Japan. Sakuraco delivery makes me happy.”
“The Box arrived today. Everything inside was in perfect condition. The assortment of treats fit perfectly together and to the theme of the month. The choice of snacks was delightful. Some Sweet and some savory. With two of everything it was easy to share and had something for everyone. If there was something someone did not like there was always another choice. Best Treat Box Ever.”
“So far so good, it’s my first box. Tracking was mostly clear until it reached Ireland, at which point the locals took over -_- so not a point against. It’s beautifully packaged and the ceramic is really nice quality. Really nice batch of treats, some minor damage, but not too bothered by it.”
“Each month an unexpected new experience and surprise, like it was Christmas every month! We loved all the pieces, each of them are not too far from occidental tastes, so new taste but not too strange :-)
Beautiful packaging and all finished in a few days !!!”
“I hesitated a long, long time before ordering - so glad I finally ordered. The beautiful box arrived with an abundance of delicious treats as well as a lovely postcard, menu guide and even a porcelain keepsake. Don’t hesitate to get a subscription, you will not be disappointed if you admire the beautiful Japanese craftsmanship and culture that is in every box. Great value.”
“I am so happy to have received these beautiful and tasty treats and the lovely Moon Festival plate. The box has a very nice variety of items and I can’t wait to try them all. I am also very impressed with the booklet that was included with information and photos of box contents and the Autumn Moon Festival. I will definitely order again. 😊”
“Sakuraco would not be a bad service to experience delicious and fun Japanese sweets and confectionary, however, I think it hoodwinks their customers in an awful way.
I did the trial of 6 months with a youtubers discount code, and would NOT have paid for this if it was clear that I would be AUTOMATICALLY charged for renewal WITHOUT any type of warning or confirmation prior to. When reaching out to customer support within the hour that they emailed me saying "thank you for your renewal", they were very adamant that they made it clear I would be automatically charged upon signing up (which is not true - if I had seen this, I would NOT have signed up). When I advised I wanted to confirm my cancellation and receive a refund, they told me they could only offer a coupon and that they could not refund me as it the payment was already "processed".
I work in operations myself, so I know how untrue this is. You cannot take my money and be unable to return the funds back.
Ultimately, be very sure if you want to sign up for something like this and just understand that you will not receive proper advisement of assistance in any aftermath of issue. The treats themselves are really lovely, but solely because of this, I will never have anything to do with this company, or their affiliates, every again.”
“I've tried a few of these japanese candy boxes now and this one is by far the best. Lovely booklet, safe packaging, cute goodies.. All in all a pleasing experience every month!”
“The snacks are very light and delicious, they go perfect with the tea. I also love how the snacks aren’t so overwhelmingly sweet, great for a more mature palette!”
“Sakuraco is a really good Japanese snack box and you even get a cool post card also the macha jelly is soo good I just kept slurping it down . I’m so sorry that I can’t upload a photo of it it’s because it won’t load”
“Every time I receive the lovely red box, it's like getting a birthday gift! Then comes the fun of exploring the contents of the box and reading the leaflet describing all the items. With both delicous sweet and savory treats and tea, plus an artware gift, I highly recommend a subscription. It makes me long to visit Japan again!
